Explanation:

Step1: Calcular la suma de los datos

Sumamos todos los valores: $5 + 12+5 + 9+10 + 14+10+16=81$

Step2: Calcular el número de datos

Contamos el número de valores, que es $n = 8$

Step3: Calcular la media

La media $\bar{x}=\frac{\sum_{i = 1}^{n}x_{i}}{n}=\frac{81}{8}=10.125\approx10.1$

Answer:

A. 10.1
